61 Years on the Throne

Today marks Queen Elizabeth II's 61st year on the throne, making her the second-longest reigning monarch after Queen Victoria (63 years).

This week, the Queen will visit Paris where special transport plans have had to be made, as sadly the official car is not spacious enough to accommodate her rather extravagant headwear!

To celebrate both the anniversary and her love of hats, we have decided to share a selection of Royal memories from our archives.
